Nikki Haley Gets a Boost From Chris Christie Exit Ahead of Iowa
The former South Carolina governor’s strength with moderates and independents helps in New Hampshire, but Donald Trump’s working-class support powers him in Iowa and other early states.

ANKENY, Iowa—Chris Christie’s exit from the Republican primary race gives Nikki Haley a clear chance to corner the market among GOP voters looking for an alternative to Donald Trump. But she still faces a tough challenge in a party that has grown increasingly reliant on working-class Republicans—a group that overwhelmingly backs Trump.

Christie, the former New Jersey governor, was drawing such weak support in Iowa that his departure leaves few voters there up for grabs for Haley, the former South Carolina governor, or other candidates ahead of Monday’s caucuses, which start the presidential nominating contest.
